How to Make Healthier Buttermilk Pancakes

  1. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or large frying pan to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and no-carb sweetener.
  3. Add the eggs, buttermilk, and 4 tablespoons of melted butter to the dry ingredients.
  4. Whisk until just combined; the batter should have small to medium lumps.
  5. For a dry griddle (recommended for healthier, non-stick pancakes): Heat the griddle until a few drops of water sprinkled on it bounce and spatter off. If using a wet griddle method, lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
  6. Using a 1/2 cup ladle, pour pancake batter onto the hot griddle, leaving 2 inches between each pancake.
  7. Cook for 2 ½ minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip when bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look slightly dry.
  8. Keep finished pancakes warm in a 175°F (80°C) oven on a heatproof plate while you cook the remaining batter.
  9. Serve warm and enjoy! Top with your favorite fruits, nuts, or sugar-free syrup.
